The product in the range with the longest wait list? According to Laxton, that would be The Inkey List Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Treatment (£12), which uses the beta-hydroxy acid to both manage oil production and break up dead skin cells sitting on the scalp that can cause flakiness.
Two of us on the POPSUGAR team with very different hair types tried the scalp treatment, and for all of you on the wait list, get ready, it's good. "After a few weeks of wearing synthetic braids, my scalp was very dry, flaky, and irritated (this usually happens with sensitive scalps)," says editorial assistant, Kara Kia, who has multitextured 3c/4a hair. "I used Inkey List Salicylic Acid Exfoliating Scalp Treatment as a pretreatment before washing and conditioning my hair, and the itchiness and flakes instantly disappeared."
My hair, on the other hand, is fine and straight, but my roots tend to get quite greasy. Using this as a preshampoo treatment absorbed a lot of that and left my roots lighter and even a little lifted. I'm definitely going to be making this a part of my routine from now on.
